Innovation in the Banking Sector
Innovation in the banking sector was among the main topics of the 7th Digital Banking Forum, the conference on banking organized by ethosEVENTS with the objective to highlight – for one more year – the trends developing in this particular market sector in Greece and abroad.
The Digital Banking Forum is an event that has transformed the way the use of digital technologies in the banking sector is presented. This year it was organized as a Digital Event, with the goal to offer participants a unique experience, as it differs from other events on banking and finance in terms of presentations and interaction between audience and speakers. Characteristic examples of this differentiation are the “virtual fireside chats”, which are live & online one-on-one interviews where representatives of major “players” in the financial sector will discuss new market trends and present their plans for the near future.
The conference was organized by ethosEVENTS in collaboration with the economic and business portal banks.com.gr and the economic and investment magazine HRIMA. It will take place on Friday 26 June 2020 as a Digital Event, available through ethosEVENTS’ platform LiveOn.
The program director of the Forum was the journalist Dimitris Mallas.
The 7th Digital Banking Forum was focus on the following areas of interest:
- Innovations by regulatory authorities
- Innovations by Greek banks
- The new “players” in Greece
- Open Banking
